Minnesota Indie Horror "Lake Runs Red" Releases 1st Full Trailer

The
producers of “Lake Runs Red,” an independently produced homeinvasion horror
feature, will release their first full trailer, an explosive vignette focusing
on the film's main antagonist, "Bruce", expertly played by actor CJ
DeVaan. It will be released via their official YouTube channel, YouTube.com/user/LakeRunsRed
on Tuesday July 14th, 2015.

"Lake
Runs Red" is employing a unique trailer strategy for their marketing
campaign. Instead of releasing a standard two minute trailer, the film is
instead releasing five character trailers, each focusing on one of the main
characters from the film. This is the first full trailer in a series of five,
the remaining four will be released over the balance of the summer and fall.

“I
think people will really respond to CJ's performance as Bruce. As far as horror
villains go, his performance is among the greats. It's iconic. It's volatile
and nuanced. It's mysterious. There's more to this character's story than meets
the eye. I'm so proud of CJ. This role is going to make him a star in the Twin
Cities performance community," said director and producer Jason Riesgraf.

Added
Stephanie Riesgraf, producer and unit production manager, "This trailer
was really well received by our cast and crew. It was just the perfect way to
introduce the world to "Bruce" and the "Lake Runs Red"
narrative as a whole. Words can't describe how excited we are. We feel strongly
that these trailers are really going to raise the profile of our indie
film."

Lake
Runs Red released two previous teaser trailers on October 31, 2014 and April 1,
2015 to remarkable fanfare. Principal photography for “Lake Runs Red” began in
July 2014 and ended November 2014. The film is currently in postproduction. For
